Anita Hill Lies Again

Tawana Brawley.

Crystal Gail Mangum.

Anita Hill.

Each used false accusations of sexual improprieties to attack and destroy men. Each has been shown to be a liar.

But since she is a liberal icon, Anita Hill has gotten space in the New York Times to continue to spread her lies about Justice Clarence Thomas. Her claims were not credible in 1991 -- they remain beyond belief in 2007.

ON Oct. 11, 1991, I testified about my experience as an employee of Clarence ThomasÂ’s at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

I stand by my testimony.

Justice Thomas has every right to present himself as he wishes in his new memoir, “My Grandfather’s Son.” He may even be entitled to feel abused by the confirmation process that led to his appointment to the Supreme Court.

But I will not stand by silently and allow him, in his anger, to reinvent me.

Anita Hill claims that "[a] number of independent authors" have supported her. The problem is that none of those authors can be particularly viewed as unbiased or non-partisan. The witnesses on her behalf were decidedly unpersuasive -- indeed, I remember watching the hearings with an anti-Thomas Democrat whose response to their testimony was to turn to me and admit that he was convinced following their testimony that Clarence Thomas was innocent.

The sort of false charges that Anita Hill made were sensational enough in 1991 that the media was more than willing to be complicit in them. But since them, we have heard Tawna Brawley recant her charges of sexual abuse against powerful men, and watched as Crysta Gail Mangum used sexually loaded charges to falsely smear young men at Duke. Anita Hill, sadly, is cut from the same cloth. But in each case, liberals have been willing to take the word of an accuser, even when the evidence is against them.

The time has come for Anita Hill to realize that her 15 minutes are up -- and that it is morally wrong for her to seek to revictimize the man whose reputation she sullied in order to gain another quarter hour.

1 I just finished listening to the audio version of Anita Hill's book, "Speaking Truth To Power." I found her version of the Clarence Thomas/Anita Hill hearings very convincing. I believe she told and is telling the truth, though I was too blind to see it when it happened. She passed a lie detector test and Thomas refused to take one.

2 Hill did not pass a lie detector test. That was a rumor that was picked up by the media and circulated wildly. Even Joe Biden announced on C-Span years later that the "lie detector thing was false". It's my opinion that to this very day, Ms Hill is insecure and has fleeting feelings of mild paranoia. She set personal goals for herself that were not reachable, early in her career, her jealous personality caused her to want to bring down those friends that had reached the goals that she desired for herself.
